When I was a young teenager my father and I had a running joke. If anyone asked what he did for a living I always said, " He's a Sports Mechanic. He fixes boxing matches and horse races."
Once I told this to a new teacher who didn't see the funny side of my joke. The teacher summoned my parents and complained about my smart alec behaviour.
